Re: How to view the current connections?

Easiest way, you can goto DOS (type in "cmd or "command" without the speech marks, in the run window), and type in "netstat" (again without the speech marks)

You can go to www.download.com and search for "monitor traffic" and "monitor bandwidth" if you want to log data and throughput in connections. The one I use is: ItCan.Net Monitor (for free)

Another easy way is to use a firewall software which has a "Net State" function that can show the currently active connections and the details of these connections. I know Armor2net Personal Firewall can do that. You may have a try. Download it from http://www.armor2net.com

Hi there,

Sygate firewall is the one I use. Its asks you every time for authorisation to allow connections in and out, also you can configure it so it knows what to let in and out automatically. In my opinion its one of the best to use.
Good luck. Chris.
